    Thinking of grabbing virtual desktop today for extra monitors. I read somewhere that there could be a security risk if you leave the group as default or something? This was in reference to having remote access to your PC. Totally ignorant on this subject, but I will be using it for work and such. So I thought I’d ask if this was a thing.

      Virtual Desktop has been around for years and years and I've never heard of anyone having any security issues. If you're concerned, just make sure to close the VD Streamer App on your PC once you're done with work.

    Hi! May I ask a question?Is there a difference between setting up wireless vs wired (usb cable to PC) route for playing flat-games(non VR) on Quest 3? almost 100% of info i've found is about wireless route which uses Virtual Desktop as a main tool for this type of secenerio. How would one go about doing this wired. CAn I use Virtual desktop even if i go wired route instead of wireless or Virtual Desktop only works via wifi-streaming (can't use it via usb cable)?

    • @VRManCave

      Hi! For wired Virtual Desktop won’t work, but you can use the native Meta Link functionality, and you have a lot of options to optimize it and make it look awesome.

      If you're having a good experience with AirLink then you're right, no reason to get this. For me personally and a lot of other people, this is a lot more stable than AirLink and also looks better. It also has a ton more settings you can change on the fly without having to use the Oculus Debug Tool.

    You can use Mobile Hotspot in Windows to wirelessly connect the Quest to your computer through a WiFi adapter. You could install a dedicated WiFi 6e adapter in your computer if you wanted the best experience, but it doesn't even have to be dedicated. Using a dedicated router seems like a total waste.

    • @VRManCave

      It all really depends on how congested your Wi-Fi is, both in terms of other devices in your house, as well as similar bandwidths from your neighbours. For me not having a dedicated one was absolutely horrible, and once I got one just for VR, my world changed completely :))

    Legit question from someone who has been PCVRing with a quest 3 for the last 3 days... Why would I use VD over the built in Quest Link App? I have been getting issues getting my SteamVR to launch correctly, usually having to resort to using task manager to force close 3-5 VR apps on my PC OR restarting my PC. Would VD fix this issue? I connect with USB cable.

    • @VRManCave
      @VRManCave  15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      It's a very good question. First off, Virtual Desktop only works wireless, so your PC will need to be wired to your Wi-Fi Router(internet speed doesn't matter). Secondly, I personally use VD over Link/AirLink because it's a lot more stable and bug free. And also because it has a ton more settings that can easily be changed on the fly. Plus of course for the wireless freedom. To answer your question about if it'll fix the issues, it's possible, as long as they're not related to SteamVR itself or any other reason besides it being a Quest Link issue.

    Air Link VS Cable Link VS Virtual Desktop VS Virtual Desktop Steam
    So many options
    Also the normal usbc cable can only load the VR right? because it also says "datacable"
    Is it always better to have a Cable?
    Invest 25$ in unofficial Link Cable or Virtual Desktop from Metaquest?
    Whats differenz between Steam and Meta Virtual Desktop?
    Where am i able to install VR mods and run Games for "free"?

    • @VRManCave
      @VRManCave  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Happy to help answer your questions.
      First off, the purpose of all those methods of connecting is the same, which is to be able to play PCVR games on your Quest. As for the difference between them, the cable will always be the most stable and best looking graphically, but you're tethered so it limits movement freedom a lot. Second best and very very close in terms of quality, is Virtual Desktop, which is exclusively what I use. It has a ton of settings and optimizations and is absolutely fantastic. AirLink is the third option, which is Meta's own alternative to Virtual Desktop, but I found it a lot less stable than VD. Finally, SteamLink is Steam's version of the above, but it's still very early days so it doesn't really have many settings available and is the newest of them all.
      My advice would be Virtual Desktop as long as your networking setup is good(as explained in the video), otherwise if you don't mind a cable, you don't have to get the official Link cable, but just make sure to get one that has good reviews on Amazon for this purpose.
      Regarding VR Mods and Games, you'll install them on your computer, and there are plenty of good free games, but stuff like Half Life Alyx, BoneLab, Blade and Sorcery, etc. you will have to purchase from Steam.
      Hope it helps!

    AV1 is the newest, most efficient codec that the Quest 3 supports, only Nvidia 4000 series and AMD 7000 series GPU can encode it.

      I have a 4060 TI, but my processor, an Intel i5-9400F isn’t the best for it, but it still works really well. Should I still use AV1?

      This explains why I regularly get a freeze in the Quest when I use this codec (4080s and an AMD 5700X3D)
      I use the HEVC 10-bit and this rund butter smooth

    3:25 you say keep "SSW to Automatic" without even giving a proper explanation as to why. I will say clearly TURN THAT CRAP OFF ! If your fps drops even by just one then your actual framerate will be halved and all frames will be interpolated until you get back to a fully locked framerate again. So if your headset is set to 80hz but during play your fps would regularly drop to 79 or 78, it would actually run at 40 instead . With it set to OFF, you will keep the framerate at 78 or 79, losing only a few frames instead of half. It was the very first thing i disabled when i bought Virtual Desktop and am having a much better experience .

    • @VRManCave
      @VRManCave  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The reason I said leave it on auto is because most people don't have a high end PC, and without it they might be getting an extremely choppy experience if their framerate goes from 50-55fps to 75-80 and flunctuates constantly. The SSW algorhythm that VD uses nowadays is much more advanced than it used to be, and in 99.99% of cases you don't even feel when it turns on or off, but you do feel a constantly smooth gameplay experience. I used to have it off all the time as well, but it's gotten way better than the horrible ASW that Meta has. Try it and you'll see it's no longer what it used to be.

      @@VRManCave Hmm maybe my opinion is really influenced by how abysmal ASW really used to be where yes it made the framerate smooth by adding interpolated frames but the screen was so insanely jittery that it was giving me a small headache each time.
      Though i made experiments with the 120 FPS mode and SSW set to Always ON, that made it 60 fps with intepolated frames and really smooth ! But the battery is being absolutely hammered, so not really worth using it that way.

      I just tried the link and it works fine and applies the 20% discount. You should be getting a pop-up on the Meta Store with a button that you can click to claim the discount. Try copying and pasting the link in an incognito window if it doesn't show up.

    I would seriously suggest turning off the color vibrance setting. It sounds like an easy win, but it's not. It messes with the colors of absolutely everything. You know those awful settings that your brand new TV is set to? Like motion smoothing and those color profiles that make everything look strange? This is precisely that. You aren't actually making anything better.

      It’s not ridiculous at all. It offers way more options, better clarity and stability than the free Airlink. But if you’re happy with Airlink then that’s all that matters.
